Cindy Hawkins – 10 Art Competition

Welcome to “In The Presence Of Halos”, my current digital mixed media series. These pieces were inspired by loving thoughts of my family, friends and animal companions who are no longer in this world. I often feel comforted by imagining feeling their essence and warmth surrounding me.

My interest in digital art began while taking classes to prepare for a career in interactive media design. I was exposed to Adobe products and various audio recording and editing software. I was hooked and in awe of the limitless, creative possibilities that these programs offered and started making abstract compositions.

You can find my work at COOPrider Studio Art Gallery, located on Main Street in downtown Guerneville, California. Guerneville has an Art Walk on the first Friday of every month and the town gets hoppin’ with all the galleries showcasing local artwork. Many of the merchants and businesses also host guest artists. It’s a fun time and everyone is welcome!
